How to Teach Students about the Stewardship of Giving - Teacher Training Resources
God desires willing givers, those who give out of a heart of love and gratitude (2 Cor. 9:7). Bible teachers therefore need to teach giving as more than a Christian duty. Since all we have belongs to God, we need to be faithful stewards. Through their example, as well as their words, teachers can help their students understand such stewardship.
Use the seven-page Teacher's Role in Discipling Students in the Stewardship of Giving to determine what constitutes spiritual maturity in regard to giving. It will guide you in thinking through where students appear to be with a view to helping them get to the next level in stewarding their finances.
(This worksheet can stand alone or be used in conjunction with the Teacher's Role in Discipling Students PowerPoint presentation as a break-out session or independent study.)
